The World Bank’s 2025 report has highlighted exceptional progress at Libya’s Misrata Free Zone Port, ranking it among the top 20 ports worldwide in terms of annual performance improvement.

According to the report, the Misrata port recorded an impressive 67.9-point increase in its global performance index within a single year — one of the largest improvements globally. This advancement reflects both the port’s growing efficiency and its expanding role as a logistics hub in the central Mediterranean.

The Misrata Free Zone Port, a key driver of Libya’s non-oil trade, has been steadily investing in digital infrastructure, improved cargo handling systems, and operational streamlining. Its inclusion in the World Bank’s top-performing list underscores Libya’s emerging position in regional maritime trade despite years of instability and reconstruction challenges.

Economists view the ranking as a major boost to investor confidence, particularly in the industrial and transport sectors. The free zone’s location — strategically connecting Africa, Europe, and the Middle East — has positioned it as a competitive alternative for shipping and re-export operations across the region.

Observers note that Libya’s broader economic reform plans, supported by improved port performance, could significantly enhance the country’s trade capacity and integration into global supply chains.

The 2025 World Bank assessment places Misrata alongside major regional ports showing fast growth, marking a milestone in Libya’s economic diversification efforts.
